After all day at home with Daddy, Mimi came over to watch the boys so we could go on a date. All day Drew kept it a secret. He made me guess every step of the date. I had 5 chances. My clue was: that I had been there before. We stopped to pick up Chick fil A and headed to the cross where Drew proposed to me. And I obviously said YES!!!!
It is hard to believe that it had been 7 years ago, that we agreed to spend the rest of our lives together. We took a few pics, ate our picnic chicken sandwiches and waffle fries, and talked about all that we had been through in our 6+ years of marriage. He asked if I would have known our future: being a coachs' wife, moving to Africa, having our 1st son in Kenya, moving back to MS, moving to NC, being a seminary students' wife, moving back to MS, having our 2nd son,........(Whew I am tired), would I still say YES, and of course I said yes!!!!! I love remembering where the Lord has taken us as a couple. This December we will have been a couple for 10 years. That is a really long time, but seems like a short time in the history I want to make with this man.
I am so blessed that God has given me the husband I have, the family I married into, and the sons HE has entrusted us with. Tonight was a happy night.
I love you Drew.
